The Long and the Short of it.
RE: The Long and the Short of it.
Yes, yes, Godhead. We are insecure and you are honest. You've made it quite clear that you think that... or at least like to use it as a defense mechanism. The truth is, you have not answered the original post in this thread at any point since you arrived here. All you did above was take another opportunity to dis on the atheists here by pretending you know what our motivations are. You do not. Your post had absolutely nothing to do with the topic of this thread. You are just being a troll... and you necro-posted to do it.

The question is: Why do you believe? What reasons do you have to believe that a god (any god at all) exists?

You say that you believe because you believe, which is not a convincing reason to anyone but you. It leaves us with no choice but to consider it an exercise in make-believe. At least other theists have been able to express their personal reasons for belief as reasons. We may not consider those reasons valid, but at least they (some, not all) have reasons beyond, "Because I want it to be true, so I believe it is."
